Paint pen for the outline, acrylic glass paints, applied by paint brush, for the everything else.  Then painted the back side with 4 clear coats to protect from the windshield bag rubbing thru ... also added a piece of plexiglass behind the painting for the same reason.  An evening to paint and 3 days to dry.

Earlier this spring I noticed my old "Rifle" windshield started showing signs of age (11 years) with stress cracks just above the cross mounting bar.  So, I ordered a new "Rifle" windshield but before I would install it, I figured that I should paint the center panel.  So I would not have to try and get my hand behind that panel and clean it.  Well, it took a bit of trial and error before I found a method applying paint on the shield.  The new acrylic paints really don't stick to plexiglass as well as lacquer paint used to.  In the end I did get it done ...  hopefully the attached photos open and they're view-able.   Personally, I think I did a fair job.
